Plant records

For a bit of fun, our Plant Records Manager, Chris Bisson, the guy who maintains all the recorded information on our plant collections, will do a regular blog slot where he recommends his favourite “plant records” – that is, songs that are in some way linked to a plant. (Do you see what we did there?)

So, over to Chris…

Green Onions by Booker T & the MG’s

The Alliaceae or Onion Family is an extremely important group of plants. The underground storage organs becoming the onions and garlic that we love and cherish. Not only are a lot of these plants tasty, they look great too, our Agapanthus and ornamental Alliums look stunning in the summer months.. I really like this track, and like to imagine onions and garlic wearing sunglasses…enjoy!
